Im getting a laptop and gonna be doing a lot of gameing on it, im afaid it will overheat or something.

Is there anykind of other cooling i can do to it to cool it down when im playing?
or will teh heat not hurt it at all?

Ill be useing it as a desktop and it will be plugged in all the time.

Its an alienware 51m 7700, and has copper-heatpipe cooling systems and a dedicated graphics card cooling solution and fan.
will it be enough?
 
It's likely that your lappy is already tested with a gamer like you in mind. However, you can buy fan pads that your laptop sits on and it blows air over the bottom of your lappy which is the part that gets hot.

Other external cooling devices might include external water cooling but that would involve total disassembly and modification. Not sure that's worth it.
